SACRAMENTO, California – De’Aaron Fox had 21 points and seven assists, Buddy Hield also scored 21 and the Sacramento Kings thumped the Golden State Warriors 111-98 on Monday night (Tuesday, PHL time).

Trevor Ariza added a season-high 18 points and six rebounds for the Kings, and Harrison Barnes scored 18 as well. Sacramento led by 31 on the way to winning for only the second time in 11 games, allowing coach Luke Walton to rest most of his starters in the fourth quarter.

It was the Kings’ second lopsided win over the Warriors this season, having beaten Golden State 100-79 on the road December 15 (Dec. 16, PHL time).

Glenn Robinson III had 16 points and five rebounds for Golden State. Omari Spellman added 13 points and six rebounds. The Warriors, who played without Draymond Green and D’Angelo Russell, have lost five straight after a season-high four-game winning streak.

Warriors coach Steve Kerr was ejected late in the second quarter after getting hit with consecutive technical fouls by referee Jason Goldenberg.

Ariza shot 7 of 9 after coming off the bench. He made five of his first six shots, including a pair of 3-pointers and two dunks to get the Kings off to a quick start. Barnes added a 3 that put Sacramento ahead 44-28.

Hield and Cory Joseph hit back-to-back 3s and Harry Giles followed with a floater to make it 83-52 in the third.
